INSTRUCTIONS FOR:
JIGSAW VARIABLE SPEED 750W
MODEL No: SJS700.V2
Thank you for purchasing a Sealey product. Manufactured to a high standard this product will, if used according to these instructions and properly
maintained, give you years of trouble free performance.
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. NOTE THE SAFE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS, WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS.
USE THIS PRODUCT CORRECTLY AND WITH CARE FOR THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT IS INTENDED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE DAMAGE
AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY. RETAIN THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE.
1.1 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
 WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other con-
nectors for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices. A
Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that a Residual Current
Device (RCD) is used. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged into a supply which is not protected by an
RCCB. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device by contacting your Sealey dealer.
You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1 The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, are tested by a qualified
electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2 The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those appliances
and the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3 Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply. See 1.1.1. and 1.1.2. and
use a Portable Appliance Tester.
1.1.4 Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5 Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all
connections to ensure that none are loose.
1.1.6 Important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply
to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7 DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
1.1.8 DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
1.1.9 DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Immediately have any faulty
item repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician. When a BS 1363/A UK 3 pin plug is
damaged, cut the cable just above the plug and dispose of the plug safely.
Fit a new plug according to the following instructions (UK only).
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal ‘L’.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly connected, that the cable outer insulation
extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
Double insulated products, which are always marked with this symbol , are fitted with live (brown) and neutral (blue) wires only.
To rewire, connect the wires as indicated above - DO NOT connect either wire to the earth terminal.
1.1.10 Products which require more than 13 amps are supplied without a plug. In this case you must contact a qualified electrician to ensure that
a suitably rated supply is available. We recommend that you discuss the installation of an industrial round pin plug and socket with your
electrician.
1.1.11 If an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an RCD fitted is preferred since any appliance
plugged into it will be protected. The cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm2, but to be absolutely sure that the
capacity of the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of
2.5mm2section cable.

3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Ensure the jigsaw is switched off and unplugged from the mains power
supply. DO NOT use blunt or damaged blades, and use the correct blade for the
material to be cut.
3.1 Fitting the saw blade.
3.1.1 Take the hex key and loosen the two hex screws (fig.1.1) in the saw head (do not
remove screws).
3.1.2 Insert the saw blade into the centre slot of the saw head as far as it will go. Ensure
the teeth face forwards.
3.1.3 Tighten hex screws and check that the back of the saw blade is in the groove of the
roller guide (fig.3.2).
WARNING! BEFORE USE ENSURE ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IN CHAPTER 1
ARE STRICTLY FOLLOWED.
3.2 ON/OFF Switch.
3.2.1 Start and stop your jigsaw by depressing and releasing the ON/OFF “trigger” switch
(fig.2.1).
3.2.2 To lock the switch in the “ON” mode depress the ON/OFF switch and the lock button
(fig.2.2) at the same time, then release the lock button.
3.2.3 To release the lock depress the on/off switch again and the saw will stop.
Original Language Version SJS700.V2 Issue: 2 - 23/11/09

3.3 Speed setting.
A variable speed switch is located in the handle (fig.2.3). Switch
setting 1 is the lowest speed and setting 6 is the highest.
3.4 Cutting: Maximum thickness: Wood 100mm; Metal 10mm
3.4.1 General cutting.
a) Select the correct blade for the material.
b) Check that the base plate is at 90° to the saw blade.
c) Switch on the laser guide (fig.1.2) and maintain the laser beam on
the scribed line on the workpiece throughout the cutting process.
Note: Use a light cutting oil for metals where necessary.
3.4.2 Arc cutting.
To cut small circles or arcs, reduce the speed by using the variable
speed switch.
3.4.3 Centre cutting.
Drill a pilot hole large enough for the blade of the jigsaw into the
centre of the hole to be cut.
3.4.4 Mitre (angle) cutting.
Loosen the two hex screws underneath the base plate (fig.4.1). Slide
the base plate towards the back of the saw and then twist the base to
the required angle using the scale marked on the plate and then slide
the base forward to locate and then re-tighten the hex screws. Ensure
work is adequately clamped, especially when cutting at a 45° angle.
s DANGER! Ensure the jigsaw is switched off and unplugged from
the mains before adjusting base plate.
3.5 Pendulum cutting (fig.5).
Pendulum cutting is performed by adjusting the pendulum switch. This
option will allow the blade to swing, resulting in improved cutting and
the use of a higher speed for certain materials.
a) When the pendulum selector is set at “0” the pendulum mechanism
is off, the blade will operate in a rigid up and down movement.
b) To engage the pendulum option, turn switch to number "1". To
increase the amount of swing, progress to number "2".
3.6 Using the graduated guide (fig.6).
3.6.1 The graduated guide allows a cut to be made parallel to a given edge
of the workpiece, thereby ensuring a straight, accurate cut.
3.6.2 Slide the graduated rule into the base and position as desired.
Tighten the fixing screws to ensure guide does not slip/move out of
position.
3.6.3 Execute cut, ensuring the flat plate of the guide remains in contact
with the edge of the workpiece.
3.7 Dust / chip extraction.
3.7.1 This jigsaw is equipped with a dust/chip extractor outlet which can be
connected to any vacuum cleaner.
3.7.2 Mount the adaptor on the jigsaw and fix it in place by twisting
anti-clockwise (fig.2.7).
3.7.3 Attach the hose of your vacuum cleaner to the adaptor. Note: Should
you require a special adaptor, please contact the manufacturer of your
vacuum cleaner.
3.8 Laser Guide Adjustment.
3.8.1 Switch on the laser guide and check the alignment of the beam, the
beam should run parallel to the centre line of the jigsaw, if adjustment
is required, slacken screw fig.7C and rotate laser fig.7D until the beam
is parallel to the centre line, tighten screw C.
3.8.2 To adjust the vertical alignment (fig.8) place the jigsaw centrally on a
marked line along its length. Depending to the direction of the
adjustment slacken the screw fig.7A or 7B and tighten the opposite
side to move the beam until it is central with the centre line marked
underneath the jigsaw.
DANGER! DO NOT shine laser beam into your own or anybody
elses eyes.
